[ISBN: 9782874490743].Text in French. - - A biographical and analytical work on the tragic life of French sculptor Camille Rosalie Claudel (8 December 1864 - 19 October 1943). She was a French sculptor known for her figurative works in bronze and marble. The book focuses on the final phase of her life, her confinement in an institution, and the systematic oblivion she fell into, often referred to as an artistic and social "funeral" (mise au tombeau). The work highlights her relationship with Auguste Rodin, her talent, and the subsequent "destruction" by her family and society, which led to her thirty years of internment. The author examines the historical documents and the context of her isolation, and offers a critical perspective on the circumstances surrounding her confinement and the loss of her artistic legacy.
